Aye, that Arsenal game was absolutely fucking brutal, and then to follow it with losing at home to Fulham was disastrous.

 

Feels like this might be @Disco’s moment…


Inshallah.

 

I’ll be on the blower to God, Buddha, Ah Puch and all the lads beforehand. 
 

Looking forward to it though. We go ahead and we’ll win. They’re an extremely mentally weak bunch of individuals particularly at SJP and the aforementioned deviant is useless from behind (somewhat ironically).

We’ll be playing with Tino and Hall too this time surely?

Eddie did mention about Hall cramping up at the end of yesterday’s game, and that we still need to be “careful” with him.

 

Hopefully he’s alright to start again, but I could understand it if they continue to err on the side of caution with him.

Interested to see what Howe goes with tomorrow.  We played so well on Saturday that it must be tempting to just go again with a very similar lineup.  Plus Burnley 'should' be the easier game where you could perhaps rotate a bit more, ahead of another CL game and then the derby.  But at the same time, I suppose he has to be careful with the likes of Hall and Tino, who are only just back from injury.  Then just the players workloads in general when it is two games close together.  Bruno has barely had a rest since he signed, either.  

 

It would seem incredibly harsh to leave Miley out.  But then you'd also want Tonali back in for this and I think it could be a Joelinton type of game.  

 

I don't think we'll see loads of changes.  At a guess, Tonali and Murphy to come back in.  Maybe Burn at left back with Schar at LCB.

Yeah that's irked me. I've been going to the evening games from work and have enough time to get back to the office and pick my bag up before the last train on Tyne valley line. That additional 15 mins is cutting it fine.

I'm surprised you can sleep at nights :sad:[emoji38]

They really can't handle a high press, so if we play our game we're probably the best placed team in the league to exploit them, especially at home. We ought to be somewhat careful of a reaction as pressure mounts on Frank, but if we can start aggressively and score in the first 10-15 minutes, which has become somewhat of a habit recently, we will batter them.

I also enjoyed Hall and Tino coming somewhat central in the final third v Everton, it was bold but it overwhelmed Everton's back line and it will do the same here.

4-1.

Nevermind the stupid stoppage time after games.

I don’t think they are as bad as being made out. Even with a changed side at SJP. They created some decent openings and dominated the ball for spells in the first half. 
 

We’ve hardly been convincing all season. But better at home and the form and performances seem to have improved. So hopefully another early goal and we’ll have too much for them.

Concerned about Hall and Tino playing so regularly after injuries but they both have to play tomorrow. Maybe rest one of them against Burnley and the other against Leverkusen if they do need a rest ready to both be available for Sunderland and can then rest both for the Carabao Cup game when hopefully Trippier could be back. 

 

Desperately need cover in January as early as possible. Once Wissa is back our depth everywhere else is refreshingly brilliant.
